Free TradingView indicators, Pine Script and MT4/MT5 source: choose by purpose
Official sources reviewed ·
Choose an indicator by the question it answers, then inspect its implementation. The BSV reference catalogue contains 75 entries: 52 indicators, 3 strategies, 10 Expert Advisors, 8 trade managers, one script and one template. Its 34 TradingView entries consist of 31 indicators and 3 strategies. Some tools support both MT4 and MT5.

| Purpose | Existing BSV resources | Inspect first |
|---|---|---|

| Breakouts and volatility | Breakout Sniper Bollinger Squeeze Advanced | Compare a strategy rule with an indicator calculation. |
| Price action and levels | Pinbar Detector Support & Resistance | Inspect candle and level rules rather than assuming a buy/sell signal. |
| Volume and profiles | Cumulative Volume Delta Volume Profile Market Profile | Check tick/real-volume assumptions and time-at-price differences. |
| Risk and trailing stops | Position Sizer ATR Trailing Stop | MT4/MT5 management tools can have order-changing behavior; inspect it. |
| Sessions and timeframe context | Trading Session Time Supertrend Multi-Timeframe | Check session timezones and how higher-timeframe values update. |
Free indicators versus a toolkit such as LuxAlgo
Compare the specific product, not just the brand: runtime, included tools, source access, modification rights, workflow and ongoing cost. LuxAlgo has a library alongside its toolkits; its Price Action Concepts page describes that product as closed-source and TradingView-exclusive. Consult the current product and license details.
BSV’s examples are independently authored reference code, not replicas of another vendor’s private products. A collection of free scripts does not automatically replace a paid screener, a multi-tool interface or support. Pick the required behavior and verify the relevant source.

An AlgoAlpha alternative or ChartPrime alternative depends on what you want to replace: chart overlays, a strategy builder, source you can inspect, or an execution service. These providers offer TradingView-related tools; compare a named product with a specific research task.

| Provider | What its official information establishes | Check before choosing |
|---|---|---|
| AlgoAlpha | Premium tools are invite-only TradingView scripts. Its free resources include open-source/community indicators and separate crypto analysis tools. | Distinguish indicator access, Strategy Builder and signals. Review each script’s source and license; access to a paid tool is not delivery of its source. |
| ChartPrime | Its tool suite sits alongside individual free TradingView indicators. The author’s Volume Positive & Negative Levels page publishes code with an MPL-2.0 notice. | That notice applies to that specific script. Check the selected tool’s access, data calculation and license rather than extending it to the full commercial suite. |
| Zeiierman | Its official documentation describes free indicators as well as invite-only bots and toolkits. | Identify the exact script and its source-publication terms. A chart indicator, a backtested strategy and broker execution are separate capabilities. |
BSV’s current reference catalogue does not contain these providers’ scripts. For source-based study of trend, momentum or risk calculations, start with the purpose table and the original authors listed there. Those examples are not feature-equivalent replacements for a premium suite, and BSV has not verified live performance.
What “free” includes
Public catalogue descriptions and provenance help you choose. BSV-hosted source view, copy and ZIP download require free email verification. Author-hosted sources link directly to their original distribution. Original licenses still apply. BSV does not mark these reference entries as compiled, runtime-tested or profitable.
How should crypto, forex or gold traders choose?
Use the actual symbol, feed, timeframe, tick size, volume field and session you intend to study. BTC, XAUUSD or NASDAQ in a query is not proof that a script has been validated on that market. First reproduce a small sample and inspect the source’s inputs.
